Definitions

  • the invention relates to a charging fluid intake module for an internal combustion engine with a housing that is configured to form a flow path for a gaseous charging fluid, wherein a heat exchanger for the gaseous charging fluid is arranged in the housing.
  • a gaseous charging fluid intake module serves to supply the gaseous charging fluids needed for a combustion process in an internal combustion engine, in particular in the form of charge air or a charge air/gas mixture, which is preferably compressed.
  • an especially space-saving variant can be implemented by the means that—as in the aforementioned charging fluid intake module—a heat exchanger for the gaseous charging fluid, in particular charge air, is arranged in the intake plenum.
  • a charging fluid intake module is described in DE 10 2004 025 187 B3, for example.
  • exhaust gas recirculation is carried out, as described in, e.g., US 2006/0060172, for purposes including reducing fuel consumption and reducing pollutants in an internal combustion engine, such as a diesel engine or a gasoline engine.
  • an exhaust gas is regularly cooled by means of a separate, external heat exchanger in the form of an exhaust gas recirculator cooler.
  • a partial stream of the exhaust gas is taken from behind the engine, cooled in a heat exchanger in the form of an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) cooler, and then mixed into the intake air.
  • EGR exhaust gas recirculation
  • the quantity of exhaust gas that can be recirculated depends on the pressure drop between the exhaust gas side and the intake side and on the operating behavior of the engine.
  • high pressure exhaust gas recirculation takes place between pipe sections that are under comparatively high pressure, for example through an exhaust gas recirculation line that exits on the engine exhaust side ahead of an exhaust driven turbine and enters on the engine intake side after a compressor.
  • low pressure exhaust gas recirculation generally takes place through an exhaust gas recirculation line between pipe sections that are under comparatively low pressure, for example through an exhaust gas recirculation line that exits on the engine exhaust side after an exhaust driven turbine and enters on the engine intake side ahead of a compressor.
  • the performance or throughput of an exhaust gas recirculation system is generally determined by the volume (quantity) of recirculated exhaust gas that can be delivered, and hence by the available pressure difference.
  • a pressure difference also called a scavenging drop—at the compressor is the critical factor, and can be increased if necessary for an exhaust gas quantity recirculated through an EGR cooler.
  • a high pressure exhaust gas recirculation system only the pressure difference between an engine exhaust side and an engine intake side is typically available for the exhaust gas flow rate.
  • the object is attained by the invention through a charging fluid intake module in which, according to the invention, the housing has an intake passage for an exhaust gas and the intake passage discharges into the flow path downstream of the heat exchanger for the gaseous charging fluid.
  • the invention is based on the consideration that the position where the admixture of the exhaust gas takes place is an important factor for the scavenging drop in a charging fluid intake module, in which a heat exchanger for the gaseous charging fluid, in particular an intercooler, is located in the housing, in particular in an intake plenum, or a heat exchanger is integrated in an air intake pipe.
  • a heat exchanger for the gaseous charging fluid in particular an intercooler
  • a heat exchanger is integrated in an air intake pipe.
  • the invention has recognized that the exhaust gas quantity that can be recirculated is unnecessarily restricted in such a case, and that the advantage in reduced consumption can therefore be improved further.
  • the invention starts with an especially compact unit that is located close to the engine and has short air paths, in which a heat exchanger for the gaseous charging fluid, in particular charge air or a charge air/gas mixture, is located in a housing, in particular in the intake plenum.
  • a heat exchanger for the gaseous charging fluid in particular charge air or a charge air/gas mixture
  • the concept of the invention provides an exhaust gas supply line downstream of the heat exchanger in the flow path of the gaseous charging fluid in order to achieve the greatest possible scavenging drop, which is to say the greatest possible pressure difference, between the exhaust and intake sides of an engine, and thus making available the largest possible pressure difference for an exhaust gas recirculation system. Otherwise, the scavenging drop would be reduced—as in the prior art—by the heat exchanger's pressure drop on the intake side for the gaseous charging fluid.
  • the invention also provides an exhaust gas recirculation system, in particular a high pressure exhaust gas recirculation system, with a charging fluid intake module according to the concept of the invention.
  • a charging fluid intake module according to the concept of the invention.
  • the use of the charging fluid intake module in a high pressure exhaust gas recirculation system is especially advantageous, since, as already explained above, components that increase the pressure difference are not always available for a high pressure exhaust gas recirculation system, with the available pressure difference instead being defined by a pressure on the engine exhaust side and a pressure on the engine intake side.
  • the inventive concept takes advantage of this situation to the greatest possible extent by means of the charging fluid intake module explained above.
  • the invention also provides an internal combustion engine with a charging fluid intake module according to the inventive concept.
  • the charging fluid intake module can have an intake plenum for the gaseous charging fluid.
  • the charging fluid intake module preferably can have a number of individual intake ports associated with the cylinders of the internal combustion engine, through which the gaseous charging fluid can be supplied to the cylinders of the internal combustion engine.
  • Such a module is also referred to as an intake manifold.
  • a throttle valve or another pressure-reducing element can be arranged ahead of the heat exchanger for the gaseous charging fluid intake module.
  • a throttle valve can be arranged between an intake pipe and the intake plenum.
  • the existing scavenging drop which is determined by the pressure difference between the extraction point on the exhaust side and in the intake path, can advantageously be further increased by the throttle valve. This is especially advantageous for use in an internal combustion engine in the form of a diesel engine and, moreover, has also proven to have advantages for use in a gasoline engine.
  • the throttle valve is located at the air intake, i.e. at the end of the intake pipe for the gaseous charging fluid and ahead of the intake plenum.
  • a throttle valve or other pressure-reducing or pressure-regulating element can be integrated in the charging fluid intake module and can be arranged either before or after the heat exchanger.
  • a heat exchanger for the gaseous charging fluid or for the exhaust gas can be designed in a variety of forms—both in terms of construction and with regard to layout with coolants.
  • An air/water heat exchanger has proven to be especially advantageous, for example.
  • media other than water for example suitable refrigerants, can also be used as the coolant.
  • a heat exchanger can additionally have a design embodiment with flow passages—whether for the gaseous charging fluid/exhaust gas or the coolant—in a wide variety of shapes as needed, for example as flat or angular tubular flow channels, or else in the form of flow channels assembled with disks.
  • the heat exchanger can have elements for improving flow or turbulence, or other heat-transfer-improving elements.
  • the heat exchanger for the gaseous charging fluid or the exhaust gas—can be embodied in an I-flow or U-flow design. It can be designed as one-stage or two-stage. In a two-stage design in particular, for example as a low-temperature stage and a high-temperature stage, the heat exchanger can have a bypass channel for bridging the heat exchanger and/or one particular stage of the same.
  • the concept of the invention is suited for every advantageous arrangement, even from a design standpoint, for the opening of the exhaust gas intake passage downstream of the heat exchanger in the flow path of the gaseous charging fluid.
  • an intake passage for the exhaust gas can discharge directly ahead of the individual intake ports in the flow path.
  • the intake passage for the exhaust gas can have a number of openings associated with the individual intake ports, with each opening discharging in or at an individual intake port in the flow path.
  • multiple intake passages can branch off from a common intake passage for the exhaust gas, for example, or else one intake passage can have openings that each discharge onto an individual intake port in the flow path.
  • at least two openings with different sizes or shapes are provided. The sizes or shapes are preferably such that an exhaust gas can be delivered with uniform distribution over the number of cylinders.
  • a uniform apportionment of the exhaust gas to all cylinders of the internal combustion engine can be provided as a function of the position of the connection to the intake passage.
  • the intake passage for the exhaust gas can be designed in the form of a manifold and/or can have multiple manifolds, which are preferably arranged in the discharge region.
  • Mixing elements e.g. in the discharge region, can assist the admixture of the exhaust gas or configure it favorably with regard to pressure in accordance with the concept of the invention.
  • a nozzle e.g., a valve nozzle, or mixing blade, or permeable elements arranged in the flow path is suitable.
  • a heat exchanger for the exhaust gas can be associated with the charging fluid intake module.
  • the heat exchanger for the exhaust gas can be arranged as a component independent of the charging fluid intake module.
  • a heat exchanger for the exhaust gas can be arranged in the housing, in particular in the intake passage for the exhaust gas.
  • the heat exchanger for the exhaust gas can be arranged in the housing such that the flow path for the exhaust gas from the heat exchanger to the intake passage passes within the housing. This simplifies the work of making the connection.
  • the heat exchanger for the gaseous charging fluid and a heat exchanger for the exhaust gas can be designed, for example, as a common heat exchanger module.
  • the space requirement can be further reduced and, moreover, the heat exchanger as a common module for charge air and exhaust gas can be constructed in an especially advantageous and cost-effective manner.
  • the housing can be designed as a casting, in particular as an injection-molded part. Suitable materials are preferably plastic and/or aluminum or combinations thereof. A housing as an injection-molded part made of aluminum is particularly suitable.
  • a particular advantage of the use of aluminum as the material is the suitability of the housing for further integration of the heat exchanger or heat exchangers.
  • one or more flow passages of the heat exchanger or heat exchangers can be designed, at least in part, as an integral part of the housing.
  • this further integration can also be achieved in general with materials other than aluminum.
  • the housing can also be designed as a multi-part housing, in particular with a separate housing part for an intake plenum and a separate housing part for an individual intake port. Furthermore, additional or alternative configurations of the housing in accordance with requirements are also suitable.
  • a one-piece housing has proven to be especially cost-effective.
  • the inventive concept has the advantage of improved delivery and distribution of cooled exhaust gas.
  • the recirculation can be implemented in an especially cost-effective manner, for example by forming a manifold, e.g. in the cover of the charging fluid intake module.
  • a heat exchanger for the exhaust gas in particular an EGR cooler, produces a compact unit including the intake plenum, possibly also with an intake pipe, the heat exchanger for the gaseous charging fluid, and the heat exchanger for the exhaust gas. This reduces the number of interfaces between the components and, moreover, reduces installation effort in the engine compartment.
  • considerable cost reductions can be achieved through common production of air paths and heat exchanger—individually or combined, as previously described.

  • FIG. 1 shows a charging fluid intake module in the form of a charge air module or air intake module 10 for an internal combustion engine (not shown in detail) according to a first preferred embodiment of the invention.
  • the air intake module 10 shown in cross-section in FIG. 2 has, as part of a housing 1 , an intake plenum 3 for a charging fluid in the form of charge air 5 , and a number of individual intake ports 7 associated with cylinders (not shown in detail) of the internal combustion engine, which are also known as intake manifolds.
  • the charge air 5 is supplied to the cylinders of the internal combustion engine by means of the intake manifolds.
  • the flow path of the charge air 5 leads on the intake side from an intake fitting, which is not shown in detail, through a schematically shown throttle valve 9 into the intake plenum 3 , through the schematically shown integrated heat exchanger in the form of an intercooler 11 into the individual intake ports 7 of the intake manifold, and finally to the cylinders of the internal combustion engine.
  • the air intake module 10 is provided for use in a high pressure exhaust gas recirculation system, but is also quite suitable for incorporation in a low pressure exhaust gas recirculation system.
  • the scavenging drop also called the scavenging drop
  • an exhaust gas recirculation system which provides an intake passage 13 for the exhaust gas 15 within the housing 1 , with the intake passage 13 discharging downstream of the heat exchanger 11 for the charge air in the flow path of the charge air represented with arrows by way of example.
  • the intake passage 13 located in the discharge region, has a manifold 17 , which in turn has an opening 19 to the aforementioned flow path.
  • FIG. 2 shows specifically that the opening 19 is located downstream of the outlet 21 of the heat exchanger 11 .
  • the intake passage 13 for the exhaust gas 15 is extended by means of the manifold 17 such that the opening 19 is located at an individual intake port 7 of the intake manifold, so that in accordance with the present embodiment the admixture of the exhaust gas 15 to the charge air takes place relatively far downstream, namely does not take place until virtually directly in the individual intake ports 7 leading to the cylinders, which are not shown in detail.
  • the present embodiment takes into account that a pressure drop is present along the course of the intake passage 13 .
  • the size of an opening 19 increases in the direction of the flow path of the exhaust gas 15 as the pressure drops, hence is smallest in the intake region of the manifold 17 located in the intake passage 13 and is largest at the opening 19 at the end, closest to the front in FIG. 1 , of the manifold 17 that is also shown closest to the front.
  • the shape and design of the openings can be usefully designed to achieve a good mixing of exhaust gas and air, in addition to the foregoing consideration.
  • the throttle valve 9 in the path of the charge air 5 between the intake pipe and intake plenum can be utilized to increase the pressure drop for the charge air 5 , thus increasing the scavenging drop for the exhaust gas 15 .

  • the heat exchanger has a block that is designed for mutually separate, heat-exchanging passage of the charge air 5 and the coolant.
  • the block has a housing 23 with a chamber 25 through which the coolant can flow, and has flow passages 27 located in the chamber 25 for the charge air.
  • the mutually separate passage of the coolant and the charge air 5 in the chamber 25 and in the flow passages 27 results in an exchange of heat between the charge air 5 and the coolant, which may be advantageously improved by turbulence elements or guide elements 29 .
  • the intake and discharge of the charge air 5 to and from the heat exchanger 11 can take place as shown, in the direction of the flow path of the charge air 5 . Variations can also provide for a lateral inflow to the heat exchanger, transverse to the flow direction shown, as needed.
